Makeup Workshop

Makeup workshops are a minimum group size of 4 ladies maximum 10 ladies.

This style of class works well if the ladies are open to having no makeup on in public and also working independently on themselves under instruction.

  • Ann Marie Ni HEachtighearna reviewed The Makeup Genie – 5 stars
  • Karen is an excellent teacher. After having a demo with her, she explained and showed all areas of applying makeup in an easy and fuss free way. You learn a lot from Karen when she is demonstrating and shows you in a simple understanding way how to apply makeup. I would definitely recommend Karen and will definitely get my makeup done with Karen again! I highly recommend Karen to all!
